Intro 

No chords                  F         F       C 
I can't see, I can't see, across the crowds 
C 
A sea of clouds and unseen dreams 
C       F         F     C 
They're screaming loud 
C 
But how they dance on second glance 
C       F       F     No chords 
they're smiling proud 
                      C 
But they are all left unseen 


Interlude 

              C 
La ta-dah-dah-dee 
              F 
La ta-dah-dah-dee-hee 


verse 1 

C                                F 
    Take a bow, take a bow, it's over now 
C                                F 
    Run and how run and how. Now we must flee 
C                                                          F 
    The electric queen; she sparked and glowed on her many screens 
   F         Em           Am        F 
At night she breathes. At night she lives 
    F    Em       F 
But only when she dreams 


             C    Em    Am     G 
She's just a dreeeeeeeeeeeam machine 
        C    Em    Am     G 
If only dreeeeeeeeeeeam machine 


verse 2 

C                                             F 
The silence breeds, the silence breeds, don't tear the air 
C                                        F 
No silly songs or darkening thoughts, no don't you dare 
C 
But here they come and here they'll stay, 
                           F 
multiplying till our dying day 
No chords          C 
Who needs sleep anyway? 


             C    Em    Am     G 
Build them a dreeeeeeeeeeeam machine 
        C    Em    Am     G 
If only dreeeeeeeeeeeam machine 


Interlude 

                C 
Yah-dah-dah-dah-dee 
                G 
Yah-dah-dah-dah-dee 
                F 
Yah-dah-dah-dah-dee 
                G 
Yah-dah-dah-dah-dee 





verse 3 

C                      F 
Walk away, walk away into the night 
C                                     F 
A sea of fright and unseen fiends who want a bite 
C                                           F 
Don't let them in, where have they been? It isn't right 
     F         Em           Am        F 
Just take your breaths. For now, it's light. 
    F      Em      F                  G    No chords 
The sun is up. The curtain's 'bout to rise
